"MERRY FUCKIN' CHRISTMAS, RATS!" Alex screeched.

Raven and Luna's doors abruptly swung open. "FUCK YEAH!" they both shouted enthusiastically.

All three girls scrambled to the tiny lemon tree in the living room they had decorated with festive ornaments.

Underneath the table where the lemon tree sat were gift boxes.

They all sat around the table and pulled out the presents.

"Ay, it me!" Raven smiled, picking up a box with a tag that said, 'To: Raven'.

She ripped off the wrapping paper to reveal a small styrofoam container. On the lid the words, 'You should warm it up,' were written.

Raven hesitantly opened the container and inside was a baked potato with Brendon's face, or at least a crude caricature of it, was carved onto it.

Raven stared dumbfoundedly at the strange and rather egotistical gift. On the inside of the lid was written, 'There's cheese in it.'

Alex, who was looking over Raven shoulder, suddenly shrieked, "IS IT C H E D D A R CHEESE!1!2?1!1?1?2?1?2?2?1?"

Suddenly, Mai's door swung open and she bounded down the stairs. When she reached the bottom she screamed, "FATHER! I CRAVE C H E D D A R!"

Raven rolled her eyes and got up. "I'm gonna go microwave this," she announced, walking out of the room.

Alex and Luna went back to looking through the presents. They both found styrofoam cartridges with a baked potato in it. In Alex's box, there was a note that read, 'It has cheddar cheese ;)'

"FATHER!" Alex shouted,
"I. CRAVE. C H E D D A R !!" Mai screeched.

"I'm surprised (Y/N) is not awake," Luna commented, "you guys sound like fucking pterodactyls."

"That's what people called me in middle school," Mai stated, walking over. "So what are you guys doing?"

Luna looked at Mai with a face of utter confusion.

"What does it look like we're doing?"

"Uh, opening packages?" Mai asked.

"We're opening our Christmas presents you dolt!" Luna retorted.

She looked over at Alex, demanding an explanation as to why Mai was so ignorant of the Christmas tradition of opening presents early in the morning.

Alex shrugged, "She doesn't celebrate," she informed, cradling a potato.

"Why?!"

"Uh, maybe because I'm not Christian?" Mai cocked her eyebrow, as though it was obvious. And it was.

Raven came back holding a plate with a half eaten baked potato on it. "Okay, even though it has Brendon's face on it, it actually tastes pretty good," she opinionated.

"Also, where the fuck is (Y/N)?"

"Probably sulking in her room," Alex assumed.

"Should we leave her be or be absolute doorknobs and force her to be social?" Mai asked.

"I say leave her be," said Luna.

Everyone who was not Luna looked over at her as though she was a fucking cauliflower.
